Alright, let's get to the first FR Finally!
It was the usual Saturday, my crew and I hit up the town square and I decided to play "Go" with my friends, I was the only one actually approaching, but whatevs, I was there for me
First set
I turned the corner and there was an HB7 turning the corner fairly quickly. I walked up to her, and tried to open with a simple "Hey can I get a moment of your time..." and she cut me off and told me she was in a rush, etc., etc.
Lessons
1) Being blown out isn't that bad
2) When giving a FTC don't ask for a moment, tell her you're taking a moment.
3) Sarging with more than 1 wing-man can screw you over when opening 1 sets.
Second Set
Walking up the street with my crew, we were back to hanging out and scoping for the next set for me to open, while trying our best to avoid a huge group of white fanboys (stuff happens when we get hyped

) a car pulls up, and drops a girl off (HB8) I knew, I had to open this set. I told my crew what was up, started feeling the Approach Excitement, and walked a bit faster to open the set from the side, I looked around and made sure my crew had dipped out of sight, and closed in.
I gently tapped the girl on her shoulder, and maneuvered around so I was standing by her side and went direct.
RB: "Hey."
HB8: "Hey?"
RB: "I just noticed you and thought to myself 'that girl's pretty cute', and I had
to come meet you.
HB8: "Oh

" (she started playing with her hair here)
RB: "What're you here for?"
HB8: "Oh, My mom wanted to go to Nordstrom, but I didn't so I told her to just drop me off here."
RB: "Really?"
HB8: "Yeah, what about you?"
RB: "Well, I was here with my friends, but they ditched me just now, so I thought, might as well meet someone new."
As we were walking, we came across a group of girls, I took the chance to Kino and show physical dominance (or something like that) and grabbed her elbow, and ushered her out of the way of the group. (didn't really matter though, because one of them broke out of the group and walked right between us, I just looked at her with an amused & confused look, and tried to just move around her, but she blocked me again) after we walked past them, the girl looked at me and asked if I knew them

.
After about 15 minutes, I figured it was about time for an instant date

.
RB: "dang, we've been walking for a while, I'm getting kinda thirsty."
HB8: "(Half-laughing) why didn't you stop somewhere to get a drink?"
RB: "Let's go to the Starbucks inside Barnes and Nobles so I can grab a drink."
arrived at Starbucks ordered our coffee, and while we're waiting in line, she was teasing me and I decide to do a little role reversal.
RB: "(in a playful tone) Aww... you're flirting with me

"
HB8: "(also in a playful tone) What am I not allowed to flirt with you, is it weird?

"
RB: "No, no, I mean, it'd be unfair to tell you not to tease me, after all how could anyone help it?

"
HB8: "Oh my gosh

"
HB8 gets her phone out, plays around with it for a little
HB8: "How do you spell your name?"
RB: "Spells it out"
she gives her phone to me, does a shoulder shrug, looks down, and then turns her head ever so slightly to give me that flirting look from the corner of her eye
HB8: "Put in your number."
RB: "Haha, shouldn't I be the one to be asking for your number?

"
HB8: "Geez, you're ridiculous

"
punched my number in, gave her phone back and found a table
Sat down and talked, after a while, we moved outside of Barnes and Nobles where her mom picked her up, and I went and rejoined with the group, after all of that, an hour and a half had passed, and my friends were dying to get home, I called it a night, and headed home to reflect on my experience.
Lessons:
1) C&F is TOO good
2) Kino Escalate more, one of my main sticking points
3) Sarging is really fun

4) Focus on learning one thing at a time and focus more on being in the moment, after all, why would I be doing this if it weren't fun?
5) Kino Escalate more
6) Control silences to peak sexual tension
7) Kino Escalate more
Open to critiquing, also I'm looking to add Fractionation to my skill set, it's good to have some of the NLP skill set. I don't really have the time to just go out and sarge all the time, so I'm going to focus more on opening whenever I see a pretty girl while I'm out.
